I think this is the most pretentious game I've ever seen "Life is Strange" - General

Whats so pretentious about a hipster and a teenager doing paranormal shenanigans? Feel free to call it pretentious when it starts pulling deep symbolism out of it's ass but right now you're just yelling buzzwords

The trailer gives off an extremely first world problems teen drama-y vibe

[QUOTE=HoodedSniper;46740205]its going to be pretty shit[/QUOTE] odd that you can't relate since you also seem to have time traveling abilities

[QUOTE=proch;46741984]The trailer gives off an extremely first world problems teen drama-y vibe[/QUOTE] ugh i got shot in the girl's bathroom today first world problems

[QUOTE=proch;46741984]The trailer gives off an extremely first world problems teen drama-y vibe[/QUOTE] Friend gets shot, first world teen problems

[QUOTE=codemaster85;46739753]Seems like the game is trying to appeal to the tumblr hivemind (aka angsty teens in high school with soft indie music in the background) that fill up most of it's userbase. Especially when one of the comments is its like gone home. 20$ says main character ends up falling in love with blue haired girl to shoehorn more progressive values to look good.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=TheLastNipple;46741551]tumblr the game[/QUOTE] what

That trailer would have had much more impact without all those awful quotes comparing it to other shit. Why do we need comparisons to other games and tv shows before we've even played it yet? Just let it be what it is.

[QUOTE=Eonart;46742503]this is really good for showing a gaping flaw in that who the fuck is stupid enough to shoot and kill someone in a toilet in the middle of a school day and not expect that there might be problems with the idea [editline]19th December 2014[/editline] Especially with shooting someone over what looks like a personal issue with that person.[/QUOTE] because shooting someone should be an intelligent decision with long consideration behind it

No it just takes a hesitating idiot with a gun, you have a pretty cliche view of what murder is. You don't think when you kill someone.

[QUOTE=Echidna666;46742538]what[/QUOTE] Female Protagonist + not a blood-soaked FPS/RPG/whatever game + seeing the words "gone" and "home" put together = trigger phrase for whiney nerds who decry anything new as artsy tumblr SJW hipster bullshit (BUT WHY DOES NOBODY TAKE GAMING MORE SERIOUSLY?!!?)

[QUOTE=Eonart;46742927]Just because murdering is stupid, that doesn't make a murderer stupid. You have to be extra stupid to kill someone in the middle of school rather than anywhere else with a lower chance of getting caught.[/QUOTE] idk, there's a cut but it seemed like the girl was trying to attack him/reach for his gun and that's why she got shot, the guy could've just been threatening her

Depressed Middle-class American white person simulator.

cant wait to make dynamic choices that ultimately affect nothing

What if the whole game is rewinding time so you don't miss that question on the test that you looked up afterwards.

[QUOTE=Minelayer;46744201]What if the whole game is rewinding time so you don't miss that question on the test that you looked up afterwards.[/QUOTE] nice.

[QUOTE=Molot0v;46741484]Seems like Beyond: Two Souls but not as good.[/QUOTE] B:TS wasn't even good. david cage's only decent game is heavy rain and even then it still has those moments where you go "what the fuck was this guy thinking".

I like the look of this. I've noticed from parodies of the trailer that it tends to be neckbeards jumping on the "feminism is shit" bandwagon that are really upset by the trailer.

At this point "SJW" has just become a buzzword you slap onto something you dislike, and I find it a lot more annoying than the actual SJW's themselves [editline]18th December 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=HoodedSniper;46744416]Did something in this thread trigger you?[/QUOTE] haha epic reply dude *fistbump combined with massive explosion*

I don't think any guys in this thread care it's a girl lead, it seems like they just want something different. Something epic, in the literary sense. I want a female lead where the woman is a tall, armor-plated warrior with a long, hulking sword and wild hair blowing in the wind as she leads a calvary on top of a huge stallion. None of this...angsty teenage garbage. I miss huge, fantastic fantasy games that are full of wizards and dragons and warriors. Hell, a fucking game where a female knight saves a male prince would be like a dream come true to me. So until that happens, this game looks BOOOORING. and probably has an unexplained plot line like Evil Within.

that's true, I imagine everyone who dislikes this game in this thread came to complain it's not what they had in mind when it comes to female leads. [editline]18th December 2014[/editline] I just get turned off completely when I see teenage anything like this... including movies and television shows. :v: which is why I can't stand teen wolf or shit like that.

What's with teen hate I never got into hating kids and teens for no reason

If it is boring to you, fine, but don't act like it took the place of a game you like.

[QUOTE=Talvy;46744751]What's with teen hate[/QUOTE] I can't stand their drama-filled dumb shit. They're uninteresting, they're annoying, a majority of them are loud; depressed, sex-craved furries, bronies, basically think back to your highschool years and you'll remember how obnoxious they are. They're... teenagers, come on it's not rocket science.

Yes this game will definitely probably shit.

[QUOTE=Talvy;46744892]Your deviantArt is full of furries[/QUOTE] No it's definitely not. It has anthro art yeah but I add all sorts of artwork to my favorites. What's your point?
